March 26, 2008 - On Electronic Arts' official Command and Conquer forums, it was announced earlier today that Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath owners would get the chance to enter the Command and Conquer 3: Red Alert 3 Beta, all good things come in 3s it would seem.

March 25, 2008 - You'd easily be forgiven if you experience a case of déjà vu while playing Kane's Wrath. Yes, the expansion to last year's Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars packs a fair amount of new content. At its heart is a 13-mission single-player campaign, along with six new subfactions and a slick new global conquest campaign. Despite this, it feels eerily familiar. Kane's Wrath doesn't just feel like you're playing Tiberium Wars again, but the nagging feeling that also haunted C&C 3 returns. Replace the 3D looks with 2D graphics and swap the high-res HD video with lower-quality video and the gameplay is virtually indistinguishable from its original progenitor of more than 15 years ago.

March 18, 2008 - Earlier Today the science fiction festival "SCI-FI-LONDON" announced that game publisher Electronic Arts would be the events' official sponsor. SCI-FI-LONDON, an event typically known for showcasing science fiction movies, will feature a number of playable EA games.

March 14, 2008 - While the single player campaign of the Command & Conquer series is a favorite among many RTS gamers, the multiplayer modes of the franchise have provided hours of entertainment beyond the traditional campaign. On March 24, Electronic Arts returns with Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, in which gamers will be able to storm the online battlefield with no less than nine factions, each with unique units and abilities tailored for play style of choice. In the latest in our series of designer diaries, Lead Producer Jim Vessella provides some inside information on what distinguishes the multiplayer component of one of this year's most anticipated RTS titles.

March 7, 2008 - When we began planning the single-player campaign for Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, we made it a goal to step outside of the standard expansion pack formula. Per this developmental target, we sought to create the single-player campaign as a two decade, three chapter saga that straddles the events of Command & Conquer 3.
We start by taking you back to the period following the Second Tiberium War, as you facilitate the re-unification of the Brotherhood of Nod after its collapse in Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun. After the player returns Kane to power, we bring you through the events of C&C3, allowing the player to see the Third Tiberium War from a new perspective. Finally, players are taken beyond the events of C&C3 to follow Kane in his pursuit of Ascension. By embracing this somewhat atypical single-player structure, we were able to answer many questions that fans have had about C&C's fictional canon, and also give hints at what is to come in the future of the Tiberium universe.

March 7, 2008 - Thirteen new story-driven missions, six new diverse sub-factions, powerful, game changing epic-units and the golden ticket to experience the most anticipated RTS game of the year in the Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 beta - what more could a Command & Conquer fanatic ask for?

February 28, 2008 - When we first started work on Kane's Wrath, we decided upon two central conceits that would drive our fictional development. The first was "the sweep of history" – we wanted to tell an epic story, spanning from the end of Firestorm to a period several years after the conclusion of Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. There were unanswered questions - how did Kane come back to life? What happened to his mask? What happened to CABAL? This was a great chance for us to answer these questions and tie up these loose ends.

February 18, 2008 - With Kane's Wrath, EA LA's upcoming expansion to last year's Command & Conquer 3, players can expect 13 new single player campaign missions, along with a much expanded set of units and some additional maps. We got an opportunity to go hands-on for a few multiplayer games as well as got a few details on the Xbox 360 version. But first, EA gave us an overview of what to expect with the Brotherhood of Nod's story, along with Kane's involvement.

February 11, 2008 - How do you turn the tide the tide of battle and cripple your opponent during the ultimate war for Tiberium?
In the past, unleashing a super-weapon such as GDI's Ion Cannon or the Brotherhood of Nod's Nuclear Missile was the optimal game-changing tactic. However, when we started working on Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, we wanted to equip players with another weapon, different in design but equally capable of making a massive, epic impact on the battlefield.
